Most of the members on here are based in the United Kingdom, there are a few in the US, but I'm not sure how many. You might have better luck with a question like this on a dedicated US Honda Fit forum.

I live in Warrington which has several swing bridges and these cause lengthy delays. Not only that you don't want to keep your foot on the brake for, say, 10 minutes in any event. Dealer suggests putting it in Park, engine off, and restart as normal so that is what I'll do.

The engine would restart well before 10 mins to protect the battery, so it's much better all round to switch off at level crossings, swing bridges etc.

Before I got the Jazz I had an 85 Carlton, a 92 Cavalier and a 01 Volvo S40, and they were all bullet proof. The two Vauxhalls had almost 400,00 miles between them, when passed on, and not a problem at all. I wouldn't have parted with the Cavalier except my wife spotted the Volvo and fell in love with it. I gave the Cavalier to my nephew, who ran it for a couple more years before the rust bug got to it.

the mk 2 jazz 1.3 is an i vetec engine with 4 long life spark plugs.[/quote]He says his car is a 1.2 not a 1.3, hence my comment about plugs. Didn't appreciate that later models were VTEC whether 1.2 or 1.3.

yes the pollen filter only stops pollen and dust entering the cabin. you need a cabin filter with activated charcoal built in if you want to stop fumes too....but im not sure if they do them for jazz's. i had one on my ford puma.
